Selected Test Results

What works

  • Installation
  • Loading the game
  • Loading Sandbox mode and building a few rides, inc, riding them
  • Creating a new user profile, and starting the first mission
  • Basically, everything :)

What does not

You need a No-CD crack to run the game, otherwise it won't start. This is the only thing keeping it from being platinum.

Workarounds

What was not tested

I didn't test the entire game, but the fact that I could run sandbox and also play the first level without any problems should meant that the rest of the game plays fine too.

Hardware tested

  • GPU:

Additional Comments

Rated gold because you need a No-CD crack to start the game - it complains that it requires the CD in the drive, even though it was (I mounted an ISO). Otherwise, this is platinum. Just drop a Cracked EXE into: ./wine/drive_c/Program Files/Atari/RollerCoaster Tycoon 3/ Don't forget to back up your original RCT3.exe. Another thing, if you play the game full screen, when you quit, your desktop resolution won't reset back to what it was, but it's like that with every game I try with Wine, so it's not RCT specific.

HowTo / Notes

How-to: Install Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 on ubuntu with an nvidia optimus enabled graphics card

This is a how-to I posted over on shyguy's world on installing RCT3 when you have an nvidia optimus enabled graphics card.

 

Link to How-to

Get background music/menu music etc. working

Posted by Sander on Friday March 2nd 2012, 18:20
MP3 background music works fine.
Convert all music in /Atari/RollerCoaster Tycoon 3/Music/ to mp3 using ffmpeg. Then replace .wma with .mp3 in MusicGenre.txt

Enjoy :)

I will post a more in depth how to tomorrow when i have time.

however i did do a quick test with summerair.wma which is the default music and it seemed to work.

ATI Video Cards with closed drivers

If you use an ATI card and the closed source drivers, make sure you have at least 11.6, else you will see crashes.
Mac Support

Please note that improving Mac Compatibility for RCT3 is taking a back burner as this game has now been released as a native Mac application as seen here:
